After the waxworks
Category: My latest Europe trip | Posted: Wed Dec 14, 2005 4:11 pm After the waxworks it was back on the bus for some more touring. I was fascinated by some of the houses in London. They were soooo thin! Here is an example. It was 3 storeys, but very narrow. Hardly room to swing a cat. And from another angle. We have flats here in Australia, but they are twice the width. Land is at a premium in London and people live wherever they can find room. Wonder how you get your furniture up to the top level! While we were there they also had a public protest rally in Hyde Park. A 'Bring the soldiers home" rally. Here are some of the assembling crowd. And some more. The rally was reportedly attended by around 40,000 people. Many of them appeared to be Muslim. There were, what I call, propoganda tables set up everywhere where you buy anti-war stickers or banners and make donations to support their cause. We even had one guy trying to persuade us to have a rally when we get back to Oz. We tried to say that we don't get involved in other coutries politics, but he was very persistent, even to the point of being rude and demanding. So we figured we'd see Hyde Park another day.
